Hi everybody,
Is there a differance between cheap and expensive Optical cables. I dont want to pay a Monster price ( I`m sure you know what I mean) for a cable if a cheap one will do do the same job. I`m after 2x1m and 1x2m. Any suggestions on best place to buy?
Thanks

I'm not going to take issue with all the regulars around here, but I thought it might be worth metioning that many people have said that glass toslink cables perform better than the usual plastic cables. I am absolutely not going to justify that, so make of it what you will, I'm just conveying what is quite a considerable body of opinion. I now have a plastic and a glass cable, and will do a comparison between them in due course. I don't care which is better, I'll just sell the other one.
